I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
I've got a home in that yonder city, good

I got a mother, a sister and a brother
Who have gone to this way before
And I am determined to go and see them, good
LordOver on that other shore
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
I've got a home in that yonder city, good

Now I'm goin' down to that river
JordanJust to bathe my weary soul
If I can touch but just the hem of
His garment, good
LordThan I know
You'll take me home
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
I've got a home in that yonder city, good
